Do you take care of a network – large or small? Are you the one the users call when they have problems with email or can’t reach a website? Are you embroiled in questions of how to subdivide and when to virtualize? Do you keep watch over a server farm? Do you patrol the perimeter, managing firewall configurations and looking for gaps that would let an intruder inside? Are you the one who answers to the suits, bridging the technical divide between the server room and the board room with
practical advice on where to go and how to grow in the changing world of information technology?
If you answer yes to any of these questions, look inside. Admin: Network and Security is all about the real world of system administration.

We’ll show you how to rescue lost systems with Knoppix. We’ll tell you about spam on IP phone connections, show you how to save configuration time with a Linux-based software appliance, and describe the innovative Open-Solaris Zones virtualization environment.
